How much does the AWEA LP-6025 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the AWEA LP-6025 that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
At 6,000 mm (236.2 in) of X travel the AWEA LP-6025 is the longest LP bridge machine with 2,500 mm (98.4 in) of Y travel. The table is 6,020 x 2,400 mm (237.0 x 94.5 in), the load rating is 20,000 kg (44,092 lb), and the machine itself weighs 50,000 kg (110,229 lb).
Accuracy over that length is the figure to read first. Under VDI AWEA lists positioning accuracy of P ≤ 0.050 mm over full travel and repeatability of Ps ≤ 0.035 mm. The LP-3025, built on the same columns, is listed at P ≤ 0.025 mm and Ps ≤ 0.020 mm. Under JIS the LP-6025 shows ± 0.015 mm over full travel and ± 0.003 mm. For bores that must line up from one end of a 6 m part to the other, the VDI figure is the one to hold the process plan against.
Heat matters more on a long machine. The maker's head layout puts the spindle, motor, ball screw and hydraulic counter weight cylinders in symmetry. Spindle thermal compensation, which tracks temperature and corrects automatically, is listed as an option. The direct drive spindle option is described as separating motor heat from the spindle, but it delivers 165 N-m at 1,500 rpm, so it is a finishing choice. The standard 6,000 rpm gear spindle gives 642 N-m at 387 rpm.
Two siblings sit either side in width. The LP-6021 has 2,100 mm (82.7 in) of Y and carries 18,000 kg (39,683 lb) at 45,000 kg (99,206 lb) machine weight. The LP-6033 has 3,300 mm (129.9 in) of Y, the same 20,000 kg (44,092 lb) rating and weighs 57,000 kg (125,661 lb).

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 6,000 mm (236.2 in) of X travel and a 6,020 x 2,400 mm (237.0 x 94.5 in) table
- 20,000 kg (44,092 lb) table load, against 18,000 kg (39,683 lb) on the LP-6021 and the LP-5025
- JIS repeatability of ± 0.003 mm, the same figure as the shortest model of the group
- Symmetrical head layout with hydraulic counter weight cylinders
- 50,000 kg (110,229 lb) machine weight, against 57,000 kg (125,661 lb) for the LP-6033 with the same table and load
Limitations
- VDI positioning accuracy of P ≤ 0.050 mm over full travel, the widest tolerance among the four 2,500 mm Y models
- X rapid traverse of 10,000 mm/min (394 ipm)
- Spindle thermal compensation is an option, not standard equipment
- The table load does not rise beyond 20,000 kg (44,092 lb) on the longer LP-7033 either, so very heavy parts are outside the LP range

Frequently Asked Questions
01
02
The head places the main spindle, spindle motor, ball screw and hydraulic counter weight cylinders symmetrically. AWEA offers spindle thermal compensation as an option; it monitors temperature and compensates automatically. The optional direct drive spindles, 8,000 or 10,000 rpm, are described as separating motor heat from the spindle.
03
The LP-6025 weighs 50,000 kg (110,229 lb) and the LP-6033 weighs 57,000 kg (125,661 lb). Both have a 6,020 x 2,400 mm (237.0 x 94.5 in) table rated for 20,000 kg (44,092 lb). The LP-6033 has 3,500 mm (137.8 in) between its columns where the LP-6025 has 2,700 mm (106.3 in).
04
The table lists an air pressure requirement of 5 ~ 8 (5) kg/cm². The hydraulic unit has a 120 liter tank with a 10 HP pump, the coolant tank holds 750 liter with a 1.5 HP pump, and the lubrication tank holds 6 liter. The spindle motor is rated 22 / 26 kW (30 / 35 HP).
